It is configured to press both the inner surface on the occipital side and the inner surface on both sides of the head. That is, when the elastic body EB is housed in the internal space S, although it extends in the internal space S, it comes into contact with the artificial eye body AE and is either the occipital side inner surface or the bilateral head side inner surface of the head body HB. It also comes into contact with the inner surface and is configured to remain compressed to some extent without being completely stretched. The elastic body EB extends in the internal space S of the head body HB, presses at least the artificial eye body AE while maintaining the compressed state in the internal space S, and at least one of the occipital side inner surface or both bilateral head side inner surfaces. It may be configured to press the inner surface of the. Even with such a configuration, the elastic body EB is in a state of being supported between the artificial eye body AE and the occipital region in the internal space S of the head body HB, or is supported between both heads. It is fixed so that it does not move in a state.

Further, since the artificial eye body AE has a spherical shape or a substantially spherical shape, the entire artificial eye body AE can be rotated so as to roll with respect to the elastic body EB in the state shown in FIG. 6 (b). You can easily adjust the direction of the AE's line of sight. The substantially spherical shape includes not only a spherical shape but also a shape that is not a perfect spherical shape such as an elliptical sphere or a polyhedral sphere.

Further, since the iris member 40 is rotatable with respect to the support member 60, the orientation of the iris pattern seen through the eyelid-shaped opening 12 with respect to the circumferential direction can be easily adjusted even in the narrow internal space S. Can be done.
